Hi there,

I guess spreads-sdist.tar.gz is a precompiled version of spreads and depencies. How is it created?

Check out the spreads repository, enter the directory, then run:

python setup.py sdist

It will create a dist folder with a tarball that you can install with
pip and/or feed to the SpreadPi script.

Thats nice. I guess this should be done in an armhf environment?

It doesn't matter what environment it is done in, as long as there are
the build tools that it needs. The build process is just Python
compilation and JS file stitching. There is nothing that gets compiled
down to machine code. I usually run it on my development Ubuntu VM
without doing anything special to try to make it seem like an arm
processor.

Awesome. Does the spreadpi-script work with only a symlink to spreads-sdist.tar.gz from the delivery/files folder?

There is a command line option you can use to point it at any tarball
location. I think it copies or symlinks the path you point it at to the
spreads-sdist.tar.gz location.

FYI, the present SpreadPi script has a number of issues that are not
ideal which is why I'm working on a replacement using Spindle. In the
longer term, it would be good to have a Spindle-like build system for
both the Pi and for the Android images you are working on. Among other
things, Spindle uses COW images so that you only need to do slow things
once (like install all the base packages). Which means you can re-run
later stages (compile and install a quick bugfix) without waiting all
day for the same version of all the dependencies to install first.

That'd be awesome. Testing the script is quite a torture right now. By the way: it works. The first built image will be online in some minutes:

Yes, using them all the time. Was just wondering what that part meant in
the build-script.
